Hadn't eaten here in quite some time. Must say I enjoyed it immensely . I got the combo chile rellano & cheese enchilada. Beans were good, rice was a tad dry but all said. Good food. There is a huge wait time. 20+ min. For 3 take out combos. By the looks of things they really want you to order ahead and provide a QR code to do so. read more

Senor Pepper's - Asada taco - Mexican Near Me - Whittier, California

The interior is small so finding seating can be difficult. I went on a Friday at 12ish and all the tables were full so I just ended up getting it to go. The chicken enchiladas were very good and I loved their take on salsa verde. It's very cilantro heavy which for me is great (I know a lot of people have issues with cilantro so you might not like it). The beans and rice were fine. The staff were friendly and helpful! read more

Senor Pepper's - Chicken Enchiladas (2) Plate - Mexican Near Me - Whittier, California

Great tacos and tasty salsa. Easy location and not crowded. Friendly staff and clean dining area.

Menudo is flavorful and clean, overall I've had it twice and it's been tasteful. Red sauce is just like king taco. Must try.

I was very satisfied the food and service were very good I have been eating here for years and it is still great

Restaurant was really small, seating was really crowded. Service wasn't very friendly felt very rushed especially being our first time no greeting as you walked in just a few menus on the wall.. we ordered the taco Tuesday special of different meats carne asada was very bland not much taste pastor was delicious carnitas was horrible was very dry and the chicken was just ok We got the "fancy tacos" carne asada again they were just okay the salsa was bland not much flavor The tortillas were good The Michelada was very big and good Overall it was okay not some place I would go again read more

Senor Pepper's - This place has horrible service and it smells bad - Mexican Near Me - Whittier, California

i'm considered to be a real food critic i happen to go to each and every restaurant that you can think of i've been to upscale restaurants and not so fancy this restaurant in whittier has been here for a long time. the atmosphere is very very depressing you walk in. they don't smile they give you the cold shoulder like you owe them something. you're just there to sit there for 30 minutes or so eat your food pay the bill and out the door and have a very good memory my case i placed an order for chili reno be honest with you. that place doesn't deserve more than one star the place is way overpriced. he charged me $20 for two tiny chino and a little bit of rice and a little bit of beans it's probably worth between eight and $12 maximum and when you pay them the money, the guy starts scoping you out giving you a death look like you owe him something come on man. this is wrong very very wrong. i will never step my foot in the door in this restaurant so if you're out there looking for a good mexican place go somewhere else. it's like i asked him for peppers. he tells me they're spicy come on mister i'm asking you for a pepper who cares if it's spicy or not very very cheap cheap extremely cheap owner i'm out the door. you guys can deal with the leftover. read more

Love the chili rellenos, hard tacos, beans, rice and albondigas soup. Whether ordering takeout, eat in or delivery, the food is always hot and very consistent, read more

I'm giving this place a two because of the food. The Service was okay, he was a nice person, for the very small interaction there was. I don't know if this place has stop caring, but it was definitely not the same. Food. : my burrito wasn't very good, unfortunately and it took a long time to get. I hate leaving reviews like this but it wasn't good. My wife and I got the breakfast burrito and it was super soft because they drown it with beans to make it seem bigger and it makes the whole thing soft to hold. It took for ever for us to get and the only thing we could taste, was beans. The bacon was soft as well. For $30 bucks, it's not worth it. Only thing that was good, was the salsa! Green is fire. And it took I'm going to try their tacos soon, so I'll see if I can change my review because I want to! read more

Your thoughts overall? 1/2 Came by for some tacos. Tried their chicken, asada and al pastor. Enjoyed the al pastor the most. Was decent. Thought the chicken and asada were both a bit dry and bland. Pastor was slightly better, but not by much. The onions could have been diced a bit more, some pieces were quite large. Their Tacos are on Special for $1.50 on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Expenses. Worth it? 1/1 For the three tacos I paid a little less than 5 bucks. Good deal. Tacos are a bit small, but they are cheap, so the pricing felt fair. Credit/debit accepted. Location & Ease of Access 1/1 Location was cool. Enjoyed the decor/art on the walls. Staff was welcoming and kind. They have a salsa bar. Located in a small plaza across the street from Trader Joe's. Several free parking spots available. Plan to return? 0/1 Probably not, I'm an asada taco fan and the asada here wasn't great. read more

When I'm on my lunch break, I come here! Every time I'm in Whittier. I have to stop by at this family owned restaurant. Always get them a chocolate breakfast burrito, never fails. Like I said it's a family owned business and they try their best to give you the best customer service. read more

Good Food , but they charge a fee if you use your card so bring cash . Service is a little slow

We have been going to this restaurant for many , many years. Their hard tacos are excellent! It's family owned so the service is awesome. We usually do takeout but it's a cute little restaurant if you want to eat there. read more

Tried this place for the 1st time & It'll be the last time, customer service wasn't that great and the food wasn't very flavorful I got the alpastor soft taco & a sope with asada over flowing with lettuce the beans taste like they were canned beans. I'm not trying to be complainer but I also work with customer service the guy kept going by there was absolutely no acknowledgment whatsoever and I know most Mexican restaurants are very welcoming very tasteful. Not once was I asked if I needed anything the man got irritated with me when I asked for a lil container for salsa oh & $2.00 dollars for refill of coke $2.98 for the 1st round! Also don't expect to get chips and salsa hahah read more

Food is great and they don't add MSG is a real plus. One of my favorite places to get food

I went there this morning to pick up a breakfast burrito. It comes with your choice of meat/protein; bacon, sausage, ham or Machaca, (which is shredded beef with bell peppers). I ordered the bacon and it comes with eggs and beans. I'm pretty sure the bacon was the chunky type or the bacon ends. If you will. Once in a while, I would come across a big chunk of bacon, and it was very tasty. Not to mention, they serve that thing piping hot. I could've left it there for an hour and still came back and ate it hot. Keep up the good work guys. The only thing I would probably add or recommend is some homestyle potatoes to add inside the burritos to make them epic read more

Food is mediocre and service is lousy. My mom ordered a crunchy beef taco and meat did not taste fresh at all. Will not be coming back anytime soon read more

The chicken burrito is my favorite. Easily the best burrito in Whittier and that salsa verde is . Hector and team are always friendly and have nearly committed my order to memory. I almost always take my order, just call ahead and take it to go. We've used them for catering too over the years. Highly recommend the tacos! read more

Good food and service. I've been here a few times, the food is always good. The place is clean. Service is great.

Horrible food, very high price. Guys drinking but not eating, is it a bar or rest? Purchased a $15 Chile relleno burrito but it turned out to be a Bean burrito with a jalapeño size Chile relleno, light on the cheese. How is this business still open? Aw, it's the liquor sales! read more

My parents are older ate at this place from Dec - February and recently told me the bad experience in their last visit . The last time they went to dine there they viewed a sign that said buy (two plates and get one free after 4pm). They asked the owner why they had not been given the third plate like the offer says in prior visits before like three times they went to eat after 4pm . They were never told by anyone .The owner said we are removing that tomorrow and brushed it off and was sarcastic he didn't even care . He also does not like Hispanics talking Spanish treats them differently my parents where speaking that language . Some white people came in while my parents were eating and gave them free soda instead same day . This is the type of guy that is just pimping a Hispanic restaurant but despises them wants whites only ... ironically he is a Hispanic.... Don't go here just a greedy restaurant owner. This place won't survive long in business in this economy probably why he has no issue doing stuff like that . No successful person treats people differently. The guy likes losing money because my parents were spending good amount those 3 visits now they will never be back rightfully. Goes to show you not everyone should own a business. Don't recommend and don't support these types of people. read more

About 4 or 5 years ago I used to come here daily during the summer to get a large iced tea. They're the only place I know of that sells my favorite (China Mist Fiesta Fria). Sometimes during those daily trips I'd pick up a taco or nachos. The about 3 years ago I moved up north, and I the only reason I had to visit that area of Whittier was to do a doctor's appointment. It was no mistake that I always scheduled my doctor's appointment around lunch time. After being poked and prodded I'd make myself feel better with carne asada soft tacos and a large tea. Then about a month ago I moved back down to the area, and well, I had my doctor's appointment today. I walked in about lunch time and ordered me some tacos and tea. I see over the years their menu has expanded (now with menudo and chilaquiles)!.The tacos are a wonderful mix of avocado, meat, and onions. Topped with a dollop of salsa, and they're a tiny bit of (healthy) heaven. The staff is super friendly, and the owner has managed to recognize me through my sporadic visits. read more

After spending the better part of the morning up to mid- day at the Alpha & Omega Comic Book Convention at Zoe Christian Fellowship, we brunched at Senor Pepper's Mexican Restaurant on Whittier Boulevard near Colima in the City of Whittier. The street tacos ( Carne Asada, Carnita, and Pollo) were substantial and savory and satisfied the stomach stupendously. What was even more spectacular? The apex- level customer service. Senor Pepper's is small but mighty. MIGHTY GOOD, THAT IS. read more

I lived in Whittier for a really long time and this was only my second time trying this place, and oh do I regret it. My parents come here all the time and just yesterday they suggested for us to order pickup from here and it was the best decision! Do order ahead of time as they do take about 20 minutes to have your food ready depending on the time of day. That's because every meal is made as you order. They don't precook their food here so you are guaranteed a freshly cooked meal every single time! It doesn't get better than that! I ordered the shredded crispy tacos, and they were delicious! The tortilla was crunchy, the taco was full of meat and potatoes and fresh lettuce and cotija cheese! It's one of the best tacos I've have in a long time! The rice and beans are also very good and I recommend for you to get them along with your meal as well. I don't think they're allowing dine-in right now due to Covid, but obviously you are able to make pickup orders. The gentleman here is very friendly and always offers a great service! Definitely one of the best Mexican restaurants in the area. The taste of their food is authentic and delicious. You should try it! Support small businesses! read more

I like their food most of the time.... but could they just not put sooooooo many raw bell peppers in their rice? Their rice is probably the only thing on the menu I hate and I love rice. Their food is made fresh and their oilless cilantro lime dressing is amazing!!! It usually doesn't take more than 10-15 minutes to get our order and their customer service is decent and the parking is easy. read more

I paid $11.01 for a shredded beef burrito that was possibly the worst burrito I've ever had. I usually like the small mom and pop shops, but this one was lacking in every way. read more

I recently tried their menudo, & i must say the broth was delicious, very tasty, except my only complaint was that the menudo pieces were BIG! Seriously, whoever had the job of cutting the menudo wanted to get it over with., but that wasn't going to stop me from ordering it again. So today on this cold rainy day, I ordered it again. Picked up the order a little pass noon. Were they already running out on a Saturday? My bowl was full of homony with just a few pieces of under cooked menudo. Chew, chew & chew. Again their broth is tasty. I write this in hope that Señor Pepper's reads this & addresses this, not to bash them. So many of their dishes are delicious & I hope they perfect their menudo. Gracias Señor Guerrero por tu delicious comida. read more

Foot is great, but is too expensive! In customer service level the cashier is rude. I would never come back to this place!!

The hubby and I tried this hole in the wall gem today and were amazed at the flavors. Definitely some of the most flavorful salsa we've ever had at a restaurant! The shrimp fajitas were amazing. My husband ordered the burrito charis (half asada in red sauce and half grilled chicken in green sauce) and i couldn't stop picking at his plate. The red sauce is definitely something else, I would order the Chile Colorado next time we come. read more

Another subpar Mexican restaurant in Whittier which really surprises me. I've always noticed it when Being across the street at Trader Joe's and it alway looked empty. That should have definitely been my first sigh but I hopped into yelp and saw a few High ratings. Was rolling solo for lunch and thought I'd finally give this place a try. Tried heir Carne Asada street tacos which were very dry. Came with beans and rice and the beans were crunchy. Also tired their hard shell shredded beef taco which was very dry and strangely had a lot of potato in it. Also, they don't nickel and dime you here. They dollar you, I.E., $1 for a credit card transaction, $1 for a small drink refill. To top it off, they are not very friendly here which surprises me due to the lack of business in the restaurant. You would think they'd be thrilled to have you there. Would not come back here and regret not going a little further east on Whittier Blvd to one of the superior Mexican restaurants. read more
